what a complete and total knob.

Last time I checked there has not been a Jam/Lewis album.
They write/produce other acts.
P does it all.
Music is more than a hit record. Get a life.

In Australia we call it the Tall Poppy Syndrome. If one stands out from the crowd, CHOP HIM DOWN! That's all it is... jealousy.

I love this.

I was told that if you ask most local musicians who is the musician you would most like to work with and over 86% said JAM AND LEWIS NOT PRINCE!

1. This sounds like a very scientific survey. "I was told" and "over 86%". Huh?

2. Your thread is more about who should be worshipped, not who is the better musician.

3. You're comparing one musician, Prince, to two musicians, Jam and Lewis. Doesn't make a bit of sense.

4. Maybe this would make some measurable amount of sense if your thread was about who musicians would rather collaborate with.

I'm 6 ft. 5 and hate sports.....unless they are played nude like the greeks used to.

It's time for this mess to be called out. ccollin88, why do you ALWAYS start these negative threads on Prince? I don't get the sense that this is coming from a funny place, you come off as bitter. Now Prince is no angel by any means but you are on a site that's based on him and his music and it's clear you aren't feeling him right now and it's your right to feel this way. I'm not asking you to leave, though it would be nice, but you never really have a real point to make in your threads. The way things are going, this thread will be just like your "Should Prince Retire" thread, locked up. So why all this hate? Plus what makes you think these threads are going to make him "change" his music? If you think this will even get to Prince, then you suffer from a big case of delusions of grandeur and it's time for you to go to the doctor real soon.

Pointless post, commerce and art don't easily mix and Prince was the one who mainly created and marketed the Minneapolis sound, Jam always gives full credit to him for this and for their break. You don't compare genius with pop. Of course people would prefer to work with Jam and Lewis, they are background people.

ccollin88 said:

This response mixed with that JB pic made me spit out my brew!!LOL

mozfonky said:

okay could someone define GENIUS?

ccollin88 said:

there is this book called a dictionary for that.

ccollin88 said:
Genius: Prince -- gifted, talented, has a wild imagination, and is a natural at what he does as a musician

A true legend. An icon of his time, and beyond.

goosebumps said:

then why he cant sell 500,000 cd's in a country with 400 million people?

ccollin88 said:

Prince proved his point 20 years ago, the young of today prefer 50 cent, or Britney Sprears.

ccollin88 said:

Who cares?

goosebumps said:

now yall cant have it both ways....in my previous thread people argued me down that prince had legions of young fans.....now yall saying they dont prefer prince....which one is it?
boy if this a debate competition I would be king of the org because no one on here can out debate me because i have facts!

wonder505 said:

if it doesnt matter if prince sells cds why dont he give them away...he dont need the money....trust me he cares.....when 3121 was number 1 for a week yall were on here acting a fool celebrating now that it has tanked you act like you dont care...ITS HYSTERICAL

ccollin88 said:

You would lose the debate because you totally missed the point. Prince fans are very diverse and the younger fans have identified themselves several times on this website. Besides, I've seen quite of few of them myself.

However, the trend now, with the youth is hip hop, the 50 Cent, Britney Rhianna type music.

That does not mean that Prince does not have any young fans.

ccollin88 said:

There's nothing wrong with celebrating when something nice happens. He happened to go #1, and that was nice so naturally as fans we're going to be happy for him.

Prince sells CDs because that is his line of business.
